Green Tara brass antique finish

Tara literally means ‘the saviour’. In Buddhism, Tara is seen as a manifestation of the bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara. She originated from the tears of Avalokiteshvara, which she poures out of compassion with all beings. Tara is therefore above all the essence (deity) of compassion. She is seen as the mother of all mothers.
